CLOUDS! Those stupid life-bringing wonderful yet annoying puffy nuisances that get in the way of our Milky Way Photography! How do you know if you should go to the location you are planning? How do you know if the clouds will "allow" you to capture an awesome image of the Milky way Galactic Core??

Join me, Aaron King from Photog Adventures, and learn my favorite way to check the night skies for good weather and watch me do it using a real-life example of deciding where to take our Southern Utah Milky Way Workshop first!
